Quotes5

  • Donna: Wade... there's something I... I wanna tell you about last night. Well, the old lady... well, Chas, he didn't translate everything that she said.
  • Wade Parent: What do you mean?
  • Donna: Well, uh... she said... there was no driver in the car.
  • Wade Parent: Whatever happened to last Thursday? I had it made last Thursday.
  • Chas: [about Lauren] I shouldn't have left her.
  • Wade Parent: Nothing would have changed. He would have taken you out too. I talked to her... she called me when she got back here. She could hear the engine coming down the street.
  • Wade Parent: [choking back the tears] She was so frightened. I don't know... I don't know.
  • Luke Johnson: I know why he didn't go into the cemetery.
  • [Wade turns to look at Luke]
  • Luke Johnson: I know why. There's no other reason... the ground... was hallowed.
  • [Wade gives Luke a skeptical glare]
  • Luke Johnson: That's what I say... but you think about it. Everything that's happened... what it did to the guys, and how.
  • [Wade turns and walks out of the house]
  • Luke Johnson: Everybody else was killed on the street! Lauren was killed in the middle of her own living room! She was special... why? Because she cursed him, that's why!
  • Wade Parent: I don't believe it, I don't accept it.
  • Luke Johnson: Wade, that car flew into that house four feet off the ground. And how did he know where she lived?
  • Wade Parent: Keep the road blocks up, get all the other guys. Get 'em down at the station right away.
  • Wade Parent: Yeah... yeah, ten years of giving out traffic tickets, and all this in one day!
  • [Yelled by Wade Parent after the car drove off the cliff but before the explosives went off.]
  • Wade Parent: Hit it! Hit the damn deck!
